The essays in this volume from the 2017 session of the Colloquium
Ioanneum in Jerusalem treat aspects of John 2:23-5:18, employing a
variety of methods. These early chapters present interpreters with
a challenging series of issues, including the strategy of
revelation in John 3-4, the characterization of Nicodemus, the only
references to the kingdom of God in John, Jesus' role as Son of
Man, the erga concept in the Fourth Gospel and the references to
John's baptism and Jesus' baptism, the background and universal
program of the narrative of the encounter between Jesus and the
Samaritan woman, the universal program in John 4, and the harvest
proverbs in John 4:35-38. The last two essays explore the
characterization of the royal official in John 4:46-54 and the
evidence for associating the Pool of Bethzatha with healing. The
essays demonstrate the astuteness of an observation made by Adele
Reinhartz: the closer we look at a text the more it "pixilates" and
the more open to interpretation it becomes.
